    2023 Army-Navy in Boston

    Just saw this - it will be the Army-Navy game for my DS's Firstie Year- that's a LONG drive for the mids and the football run... https://turnto10.com/sports/content/gillette-stadium-wins-bid-to-army-navy-game?fs=e&s=cl&fbclid=IwAR2r3ArrY9DdoX-btuLjuuXBC_K1V0ru465WIzZu69EPaQyR0p64jz7hbJc

    NSI Medical

    My DS's doctor wrote a lab order for the test, we were able to take it to a local LabCorp the same day and get the test. Results take 2-3 days.

    ED to Dartmouth/Finance Career After USNA?

    It is hard to say. I will say that my DS (now a youngster at USNA) had a similar issue with Vanderbilt. He did not want to go ED because he wanted to wait for USNA but he knew that his chances were significantly higher going ED and we were going round and round with admissions - they were...

    Sea Year Sexual Assault Report(s)

    When I read your account, all I could do was imagine my my DD in your situation. You have been on my heart and mind since I read your account. You are brave and courageous and you WILL impact the lives of more women (and men) than you can imagine. I am in your corner.

    Sea Year Sexual Assault Report(s)

    This is absolutely sickening. I applaud the bravery and persistence of the women that reported and kept reporting. I think that answers the question as to why many don't report. I can only hope that this may FINALLY cause those with the ability to enact change to do so and hold those guilty...

    Sea Year Sexual Assault Report(s)

    What you say is ostensibly true about immediate reporting. However, that would require the vessel to be carrying a rape kit and someone qualified, in all aspects, to administer since she was two weeks from port. Given what I have read today (and am sickened by) I seriously doubt that is the...

    Issue with sending ACT superscore

    Thank you! DS was not able to get through so that is very helpful! Back to the ACT portal it is...

    Issue with sending ACT superscore

    We have the same issue. Our understanding from ACT is that if you send the superscore report they send that along with all of the underlying tests that make up the superscore. Looks like DS will be making another call to admissions...

    Afghanistan in the rear view mirror...

    Thank you for somehow articulating exactly how I feel. With a youngster son, a senior son intent on naval service, and so many new friends that are like family who are now in or may soon be in harms way, I am scared and I am angry. My heart is broken and all I can think about are the mothers...

    Your Son/Daughter is Going Where?? Round 2

    I laughed WAY too hard and WAY too long at this. Also, accurate. 😂

    Still Not Easy...

    You said it perfectly. It is the going back that is so hard to watch. The last hug, seeing him try to hold back the tears even thought he's excited to return, the brother hug where they both hold on longer than you expect, watching him walk through airport security with the stuffed sea bag and...

    6'4 and possibly still growing

    That is just about verbatim what his coach says.

    6'4 and possibly still growing

    he did until 8th grade (after which he grew 10 inches)- now it is men's volleyball and baseball...and of course pick-up basketball whenever there is a willing participant.

    6'4 and possibly still growing

    DS's height is definitely in his legs! 36 inch inseam is starting to look like high-waters...

    6'4 and possibly still growing

    Good afternoon collective brain trust, my DS is a rising senior. He is 6'4 and the dr says he may have another inch or two in him. We have been researching (i.e. googling) height restrictions in various service branches and are not coming up with much. I have seen several references to a 6'5...

    Juneteenth holiday

    Same here. My son received word last night that all programming today is cancelled. Also hoping they can make it up somehow.

    Summer Seminar 2021 Logistics

    My son is 2B also and received his classroom codes yesterday. If you don't have anything yet I would call admissions (since they may not look at email until later). They can direct you to the correct individuals.

    I should withdraw from safety school, right?

    My son had a significant scholarship offer at his safety school. He was supposed to accept the scholarship and commit to attending by June 1 and if he didn't he would lose the scholarship. He called admissions and talked to a wonderful lady. He let them know that he had accepted an appointment...
